I don't think adding new infrastructure is even necessary anymore. In fact, in many places, we're seeing natural gas lines intentionally not being built for new homes. Why? Electric is enough. Heat pumps for your home, modern electric appliances are arguably better than natural gas, no need to maintain electric lines AND gas lines. Adding hydrogen into the mix means a whole parallel set of infrastructure. Look into what happened in Lawrence Massachusetts (hardly the sticks) when the gas company made a mistake -- the town quite literally burst into flames.

I sympathize with going full electric in the home with modern appliances, but honestly the hydrogen thing was all supposed to be for automotives.

The cheapest hydrogen fuel is a byproduct of fracking so that's why it was pushed. It was never sustainable or made sense, obviously.
